A juxtaposition of two types of alienation: social and spiritual. While the concept itself refers to an estrangement from the self, it also explores how the subject loses their identity to social trends. The film portrays two groups of alienated individuals at different parties: the 'happy' party, where everyone smokes and drinks simply to conform, and the 'sad' party, where alienation is spiritual and intrapersonal. Although their realities differ, both groups hear the same thing: the sound of being alive.
